The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

That's really just the disappointing part is it leaves an important agency leaderless for a bit.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Oh, man, every two days, probably.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Every 48 hours, they're probably launching a Falcon 9.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

And, I mean, what's NASA doing?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

So...

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

NASA's huge, and they're doing a lot of things.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Some are really important, why the agency was created in the first place.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

And then they're doing a lot of little things that I would say were not necessarily why the agency was created and can be somewhat of a distraction.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

I mean, there's 40,000 people, you know, between contractors and employees at NASA across 10 major centers.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

And in my mind, you know, the agency, again, should be doing the near impossible what no one else in the world, no other organization or company is capable of doing.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Like the true...

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

radical cutting-edge things in space and in our atmosphere from a human exploration and a scientific discovery and trying to usher in the orbital economy.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Like they should have two or three really big things that need to be solved in this incredibly important domain.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

And I'd say that their budget is split across like thousands of things that kind of make it hard to do any of those things.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

That they are doing?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

I mean, planetary science, for sure.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

So, look, all the things they're doing are directionally correct.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

How well are they doing it, right?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Is Hubble and James Webb Space Telescope awesome?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#234 Jared Isaacman - Will China Trigger the Next Sputnik Moment for NASA?

Absolutely.
